BERLIN, March 11 (U. P.).—Fuehrer litler hfs consulted Joachim von Ribbentrop, Foreign Minister, and other high Foreign Office officials regarding the situation in Czechoslovakia resulting from the dismissal of Slovak officials by the Central Government, it was understood today.
Herr Hitler calied Baron
von Ribbentrop and other ad-
visers into consultation last night, it was said in a reliable
quarter, and it was decided to await further developments before taking any definite steps.
‘There was no indication that the Government was planning at present to intervene- militarily. Informants said that before deciding on any steps the Government wanted further clarification of the attitude of Josef Tiso, Premier of the semiautonomous Slovak GoOvernment whose dismissal, along with that of two other Slovak Cabinet ministers, precipitated what was called here a crisis. The official Nazi news agency announced yesterday that ex-Premier Tiso had sent a note to the German Government protesting the action of the. Czechoslovak Government. Contents of the note were withheld. ‘Well informed quarters said the German Government was most annoyed at the. swift action of the Czechoslovak Central Government in. dismissing “Premier Tiso and his * associates, sending troops to occupy principal Slovak cities, and imposing martial law on the Bratislava area. * “Double-Cross” Alleged
“The feeling among Nazis was said to be that the Czechoslovak Government had ‘‘double-crossed” Germany and in reliable quarters it was said that Herr Hitler would not tolerate any action which he regarded as violating the Munich and Vienna agreements which dismembered Czechoslovakia and set up semiautonomous provincial governments. Berlin's + sympathy with {he Slovaks was shown by headlines in the morning newspapers.
“Praha Terrorizes Slovakia: A Return to Old Czech Methods,” was the headline of the Voelkischer Beobachter, the official Nazi Party newspaper. “Praha Has Learned Nothing: Martial Law in Bratislava,” said the Morgenpost headline. A source close to the Government ’ said that the disposition here was to treat the Czechoslovak matter as a domestic one and that Germany probably would not intervene unless German interests in Czechoslovokia were “directly menaced.” However, a wide interpretation might be made of German interests. Also the general understanding was that (Continued on Page Two)

Baby in Locked Machine Saved From Suffocation
You stop and look when a baby buggy passes, for all the world loves a baby.

HIGH COURT WRIT ASKED
Would Keep County Tribunal From Acting on Beer Dealer's Appeal.
By United Press
The State. Alcoholic Beverages Commission today filed suit in the Supreme Court to test the amendments tg the State liquor law passed by the recent Legislature, claiming that they were unconstitutional. The Commission asked the Supreme Court to issue a writ of prohibition to prevent the Marion County Superior Court from acting on an appeal by Omer Klipsch of Petersburg, to whom the Commission had refused a beer hole saler permit. One amendment to the liquor law passed by the last Legislature removes the restrictions on the number of beer wholesalers and permits applicants to appeal to the Marion
County Superior Court if refused a |,
license by the Commission. Test for All Amendments This case, however, is being used to test the entire group of amendments approved by the Legislature. The Commission members said
“rights and duties and authority determined by a court of final jurisdiction . . . and desired at the first opportunity to have the amended act construed, interpreted and defined by a court of last resort.” The Commission said that the amendments are unconstitutional because “there are many conflicting, contradictory. and uncertain terms and provisions” in the act and that “many of the terms and] provisions , . . are susceptible to one or more interpretations or meanings.” The right of appeal to a Superior Court is unconstitutional, the Commission contended; because the Superior Court is a statutory instead of a constitutional court and its _ | powers are derived from the statute g [creating it. No specific power is
the “Superior Court to receive appedals from the Commission's -decisions, the members said. © Moreover, the Commission contended, the “title (of the amendments) is not broad enough to embrace the subject of appeal and the subject of conferring jurisdiction.” Another Already Has Permit In reference to the specific case of Mr. Klipsch, the Commission said that Harcourt Scales of Winslow in Pike County already has a beer wholesaler permit. If anefher were issued, there would not be sufficient consumption of beer to allow Mr. Scales to continue to operate at a profit, it said. ‘Pollowing from this, the Commission, said that the new amendments deny to wholesalers the protection of law since they cannot defend themselves or their territory in the appeal suits filed by rejected apolicants. This constitutes deprivations of property without due process of law,” contrary to the Constitution,
The petition also said: “The act permits the Marion County Superior Court to function as an administrative and ministerial body in place of a judicial body.” The petition concluded with the assertion that the Commission did not act “capriciously, arbitrarily or upon political grounds” but re-
good faith.” ‘Lung’ Lost ~ Cork Bobber Is Dislodged

Ruling.

Supports General Purposes of Bill but Points To ‘Defects in Structure’ of Measure; Dr. Myers Requests Approval.
Indiana Medical Association officials today said the group hospitalization bill vetoed by Governor Townsend was a “mociel bill” and that they “sincerely doubted” that it was
unconstitutional,
Dr. Karl Ruddell, president-elect of the association, said “it doesn’t sound reasonable that it could be unconsti= tutional since the bill was drawn by American Hospital Association lawyers from laws now in effect in other states.
WRITER PRAISES INSURANCE PLAN
Watson Davis Cites Success
Of Hospitalization Setup In Other Places.
Provisions in the vetoed hospital insurance bill have been proven workable and practical for both the medical profession and the consuming public, Watson Davis, Science Service Direcwor, said here today. Mr. Davis, who writes for The Indianapolis Times, explained: the theory back of the insurance plan of medicine. He pointed out that insurance spreads the cost of hospitalization
jut does not necessarily reduce it.
It may, he said,” provide care| for ‘more persons at the same cost or better care for the same number at the same cost. He also said that in the long | run it may reduce cest by enabling hospitals to plan their programs. Mr. Davis pointed out that the insurance plan is working in many other communities and that it seems to be beneficial. Mr. Davis said that, so far as working plans are concerned, nonprofit organizations apparently are quite successful. “After all,” he said, “most hospitals are on a nonprofit basis and have been. I am for that system because exploitation is something that ought not ‘to be in health.
Health is one of the things that
shouldn’t be exploited.” Mr. Davis passed through Indianapolis en route to Washington. He was returning from Knox College, where he acted as an instructor for three weeks.
BILL FOR REVISION OF HEALTH BOARD KILLED
Harvey Silent on Reports He May Resign Post.
The State Health Board Reorganization Bill *is dead,” an official spokesman for the Governor announced today. The Governor has until midnight tonight to sign the less than a dozen bills which must have his signature to become law. He has announced that he will not be in the City today. Commenting on the Health Board Bill, he said: “I am not going to sign a bill which would take this board completely out of the control of the public . . .” The bill would have removed the Governor's power over the board and reorganized it to consist of 11 members, including a civil engineer, dentist, veterinarian, pharmacist,
six physicians and a layman. -
Rumors that the Governor's fail-
ure to sign the bill would result in resignations of several board members were unconfirmed.
Dr. Verne K. Harvey, State Health
Board Secretary, who has advocated passage of the bill, refused to comment when asked if he intended to resign if the bill was killed.
The present four-member Board
probably will function until June 26.

OTTAWA, Ontario, March 11 (U. P.).—Dr.' A. R. Dafoe, the Dionne quintuplets’ physician, said today that he would not object to taking the girls to Toronto if King George VI and Queen Elizabeth express a desire to see them. “A royal command is a .royal command, and if the King asks to see the little girls I guess we’ll have to produce them,” he said. Dr. Dafoe said the girls would be taken to Toronto only on condition that they were in good health, the consent of the board of guardians was obtained,

and that proper arrangements were care, :
“This was a very meritorious bill and similar measures have been successfyl in New York, St. Louis and on the West Coast. We know that not a single complaint has come in against . the New
York law. “Insurance companies have been against this measure because they were afraid it would upset the insurance structure. But I doubt its enactment would have resulted in
that.” Advances New Plea
Meanwhile a new ‘plea to the Gove ernor was made by Dr. Charles W, Myers, City Hospital superintendeent, who asked the Governor not to permit “objections from some smalle er health and accident insurance companies to stand in his way of signing the bill.”
“The demands on this institution will be reduced at least 20 per cent
in accordance with ‘this act,” ‘he wrote, “and it is high time that some step be taken that will relieve the (azpayer of an ever-increasing bur= en.” Other officials said they were “deeply disappointed that their progressive program had been blocked by the Governor for at least, two years. » J. B. H. Martin, administrator of the Indiana University Medical Cen= ter, said it was a plan used gene erally by hospitals throughout the country. “Seventeen states and 60 cities ‘have a similar plan which effects more than 3,500,000 people. The hill would have aided the middle-income groups who otherwise would not be
;able to secure hospital care.”
Dr. Myers’ Letter
Dr. Myers letter to the Govere nor stated: “I am writing you relative to which now awaits your signature for it to bee
{come a law.
“This bill vitally affects this ine stitution and all other - charitable institutions in the State of Indiana. The demands on this institution will be reduced at least 20 per cent if, and when, a hospital service plan is operated in accordance with the provisions of this act. . “The cost of relief is mounting daily, and it is high time that some step be taken that will relieve the taxpayer of this ever increasing - burden. “The plan as provided in House Bill 241 will cause many thousands of people to make provisions f-v hospital care, and by so doing w:il relieve the cities, counties and township trustees from providing relief at public’ expense. “I can see no objection to this plan from any angle. In Chicago and vicinity many of the better ins surance companies have co-operate: ed by encouraging their own emse: ployees to arrange for hospital care under this plan. “This leads me to believe that. the larger insurance companies are not opposed to the hospital service plans since their employees are members. The following ine surance companies are co-operate ing with the hospital service plan in Chicago: Aetna Insurance Co, Chicago Board of Underwriters, Hartford Fire Insurance Co., John Hancock. Mutual Life Insurance | Co., Prudential Insurance Co. : Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. and New York Life Insurance Co, “Personally I can see many reae sons why House Bill 241 should become a law, but I have not yet been given cone valid reason why it should not.
